I had fun with this one. I was assigned to do a portrait of Kanye West for the New Yorker, to accompany a review of his album "The Life of Pablo". As I was given a lot of freedom for this, I thought it'd be nice to paint it up traditionally on paper. It's always nice when I get the chance to paint something with this much freedom.
The art here was drawn on paper and painted with gouache and ink with some colour manipulation and tweaking in photoshop.
